Global hotel brand InterContinental Hotels & Resorts has partnered with Timeshifter to offer the latter’s jet lag app to its guests.
Developed in association with globally renowned scientists, the Timeshifter jet lag app leverages the latest sleep and circadian neuroscience research.
Timeshifter will now provide InterContinental Hotels & Resorts’ guests with a scientific way to reduce the negative impacts of jet lag through personalised plans based on individual sleep pattern, chronotype, itinerary, and personal preferences.
IHG Hotels and Resorts luxury and lifestyle brands vice-president Tom Rowntree said: “Timeshifter represents one example of how we are transforming the InterContinental guest experience for today’s modern traveller.
“Our guests will have access to the technology pre-arrival and upon departure to enable them to seamlessly shift between destinations. By unlocking Timeshifter for our guests, we aim to free them from the frustrations of travel fatigue and jet lag, enabling them to arrive at our hotels and resorts ready to explore everything our diverse destinations have to offer.”
Currently, the Timeshifter app is available at InterContinental locations across ten countries, including the US and France, among others.
InterContinental plans to roll out the app to over 200 hotels in more than 70 countries by this year.
Timeshifter co-founder and CEO Mickey Beyer-Clausen said: “We are absolutely thrilled to embark on this exciting partnership with InterContinental Hotels & Resorts, which marks another significant step for Timeshifter toward reshaping the travel experience with our science-based jet lag app.
“We are excited about the positive impact this partnership will have on InterContinental guests around the world, ensuring they arrive at their destination at their best, feeling refreshed, energised, and ready to make the most of their time away.”
This collaboration is part of InterContinental's plans for a significant global brand evolution to reimagine the luxury travel experience.
The evolution includes the introduction of new offerings, unique brand characteristics, a revamped strategy for food, beverage and hotel design, and a fresh brand culture.
